[hiake]

Is the milk you use boiled enough and frothed enough? If it's not hot & frothy it won't be able to create the pattern...

[goo wak jai]

[leelee]

I'd skip the art and go for real coffee. My beans are Columbian or Costa Rica. They are ground fresh- as required so the aroma is preserved. Then I put them in a percolator and wait for the coffee to brew. Drink it only in black as milk or cream kills it's real taste. If you like put in a little sugar. That's heaven!

[jnetcube5]

nice designs on coffee.. but i don't drink it though.

[reno]

o_O
nice...

but then is it worth drinking it since it'll ruin the image
wonder if it tastes as good as it looks? lol

[sp-lork]

oOoo that's so cool. i wouldn't drink it though. like reno said, it'll ruin the image :P

[reno]

mayb u gotta learn to drink it without ruining the image the at the top =P

[The_Jelly]

Use a straw?

[DuchSauce]

That's impressive, Im going to try that at my next dinner party

[kkcheng]

i want to learn this, it is so pretty

[gingercandy]

wow I always thought they just like do it with sticks or something, never thought of actually doing it by filling it in the cup o.O

[itz_digiana]

oOo.... i wanna learn this... it look really cool... maybe i will go drink more lattes xp

[megchan]

so cool! i remember one of my cousins used to do this for my parents when i was little. she learned it as a barissta (sp is wrong i know) while she was studying in italy. i remember she had a lot of stuff out when only making 2 cups of coffee and i always wondered why. she made the prettiest pictures. thats lots of skills i think.
